Wow. There was just zero reason for him to say anything. Nobody is accusing Fortnite of being unsafe for kids. And he chose to say that. For himself.
He's probably just trying to get noticed by Trump. "Hey, look at me! I'm on the side of you and the other pedoNazis! You're the best!"
"I like kids too!"
We already know they're buddies; Tim Sweeney travelled to Saudi Arabia with Trump's bribe-seeking entourage.
"Epic MAGAgames"
Edit: better link
He was on the list, but I couldn't find him in any of the photos or videos from the event. The CEOs of Nvidia and OpenAI were indeed present and shaking hands though.
He wants an invitation to Epstein island v2
I think the USA is a bit big to be considered an island
Well if north-Korea can call itself and democracy, why can't Trump call the us an island?
"We have certain things in common, Donald. Enigmas never age, have you noticed that? A pal is a wonderful thing to have!"
Is EpicGames involved with Roblox? Because as far as minors go, I hear THAT game is a dumpster fire with zero redeemable qualities.
Not really, no. It's clear that Epic took way worse a direction than Digital Extremes.
Digital Extremes, the makers of Warframe?
Indeed. DE branched off from Epic Games in the 90s, I believe. Obviously took a more ethical direction.
As per their download page https://www.roblox.com/download , no. Not to say EGS is good, it's Roblox treasuring independency where they can.
Going by the claims their CEOs make you could swap them and things would progress as usual. Or regress, rather.
Politicians want the offending apps removed from the app stores, and Sweeney thinks app store business is his business. He really ought to worry more about improving his own store.
But, his store has nothing to do with X. And, for example, Horses was banned from EGS too.
wretching, vomit splashing noises
